OFFICIAL WELCOME TO REGENT ERWlN.--Chairman Heath wel- comed officially Regent Erwin with the following remarks: "I have the rare privilege and honor to welcome to the Board of Regents my good friend, Frank Erwin. I doubt if any pre- vious Chairman of this Board has had the pleasure of extending the Board's welcome to a new member who is not only a dis- tinguished fellow citizen of the Chairman's home town, but also a long-time warm personal friend, with whom he has l had many pleasant associations, whose philosophies and con- victions run so nearly parallel to his own, and whose judgment he respects so highly. "Frank Erwin is known throughout Texas as an outstanding I lawyer, scholar, and leader in too many areas to attempt I ! here to enumerate. The University of Texas will highly bene- fit from his fine abilities and dedicated interest. In the years ahead, each of us will greatly enjoy our association with Frank, and his charming wife, June, and will become as proud of the entire Erwin family as is all of Austin. "Welcome to our labors, Frank!" , e -4- 079 5-24-63 SPECIAL ITEMS BY CHAIRMAN.--Below are special items in the form as presented by Chairman Heath some of which required action and sore of which did not: "Regental Appointees, University Development Board. -- The k appointees by the Regents to the University Development Board are: Term Expires Mr. Dan C. Williams, Chairman August 31, 1968 Mr. Ernest Cockrell, Jr. August 31, 1964 Mrs. Charles Devall August 31, 1968 Mr. J.

" In this connection, Chairman Heath called attention to the fact that there is an amendment to the Rules and Regulations on the agenda for final approval which expands the membership of the Development Board. (See Page 21 • ) "Members of the Board are requested to file with the Chairman suggestions for appointments to the Development Board. Vacancies on this Board will be nominated by the Chairman after consultation with the Academic and Developmental Affairs Committee at the July meeting. " "Membership of Athletic Council. --In view of the absence of Mr. McNeese, Chairman of the Academic and Developmental Affairs Committee, and since your Chairman will need to q consult him and his committee before nominating the Board's representatives on the Athletic Council for the year beginning September 1, 1963, Iwould recommend and suggest that the Academic and Developmental Affairs Committee pass consider- ation of the last item on its agenda relating to the academic members on the Athletic Council of Main University until such committee's meeting at the July session of the Board at which time that committee will have an opportunity to review both the academic members and those to be appointed by the Board. (The last item is on the Supplementary Agenda.)" .i i J "Formal__ Acceptance of President Smiley's Resignation and Poll i J l of Regents Resulting Therefrom. --As each of you know, it recently became my unpleasant duty to report to you that Dr. ] Joseph Srnfley had advised me as Chairman of the Board of his intention to submit his resignation as President of the Main University to accept the top position of President of The Univer- sity of Colorado System, and later to report to you his resig- nation and acceptance of such position, effective June 30, 1963. r -5- Z 080 5-24 "A motion to formally accept Dr. Smiley's resignation as President of the Main University, effective at the end of the day, June 30, 1963, is in order and will be entertained. Do I hear such a motion? " Motion on Approval. --It was so moved by Regent Madden, seconded by Regent Connally, and unanimously adopted. ' The motion carries and such resignation is formally accepted. "As you know, following such resignation, I polled each mem- ber of the Board by telephone, and for reasons with which you i ij~ are all familiar, you unanimously authorized me t0 make the following statement on behalf of the Board. The stat4ment reads 'The Board of Regents has decided to consolidate the present administrations of the System and the Main University effective July 1, 1963. 'Under this consolidation, the Presidency of the Main 1 University will be discontinued and the administration !: of The University of Texas unified under the Office of the Chancellor. 'The consolidation is being made with the full concurrence of both Chancellor Ransom and President Srniley.

Since the adjournment of the regular session of the Legislature the matter of the sunken treasure, lying in some 30 feet of water not far off the Texas shoreline, has been characterized largely by a lawsuit that was filed in Corpus Christi to question the extent of Sadler's authority in the matter. The commissioner is operating in a void in Texas law; the state has no antiquities code providing for recovery of lost treasure, or of anything of archeological or historical value. Since the treasure rests on Texas' tide- lands (extending from the shoreline 10.35 miles into the gulf) Sadler contends he is custodian of the booty, since state law names the land office to regulate the tidelands for the benefit of the Permanent Free School Fund, which helps support public education in the state.

As ncmination in either of the two summer primaries ia tantamount to election in TBX&B, very little emphasis was given to the general or Novesaber elections in the guberna­ torial^ senatorial^ and congressional races.

    q osborn 10/8/04 1:47 PM Page 393 Curtains for Jim Crow: Law, Race, and the Texas Railroads William S. Osborn* n September 15, 1893, Thomas W. Cain , a black resident o f OGalveston, was visiting in St. Louis, Missouri. H e purchased a ticket for rail travel home and paid an extra fare for a berth in a Pullman car. His trip began without incident. At Longview, Texas, this Pullman car was switched onto an International & Great Norther n Railroad Company train bound for Galveston. Upon arrival at Troup, Texas, I. & G. N. train- master J. C. Gregory announced to Cain that his presence in the sleeping car with whites violated a new state statute. This statute, the first Texas law regarding segregation on the railways, had passed in the 18 9 1 le g i s l a - tive session. It required separate coaches or compartments for white and black passengers. Trainmaster Gregory instructed Cain to move from his Pullman car to a day coach assigned to blacks only. Cain objected but to no avail. H e was refunded $2, this sum being the premium fare calculat- ed for Pullman travel on the remainder of his journey.1 * W illiam S.
